Belper River Gardens early this morning.

Thats very pretty ...

lovely little gardens with the river Derwent running along one side. They have brass bands playing in the bandstand and other forms of entertainment too at the weekend during the summer months.

looks beautiful, the light and shade play so nicely with
the flowers on the stand.

the person who looks after the park does a good job.

he does, if you speak to him do say i liked!

There is a kingfisher that lives nearby and visits the small lake at the back. Gerry has seen him but I haven't. Peregrines are living on the mill there too. Geese, ducks, seagulls and pigeons get well fed by the public. Wooden rowing boats to take down the river if one is feeling energetic.

Very tranquil.

2 minutes in the car and 15 minutes walk away.

Lucky you.

Hi Wells, living where we do in Derbyshire is lovely as there are old houses to visit and the beautiful countryside around to walk in.
